Ruellia (Acanthaceae family)
Is commonly known as the 'wild petunia', however are no-where related to the Petunia sps.
could be R. brittoniana as well.
I think Tabishji has ID'd the plant on 'Flowers of India' as well.
This particular species is also commonly known as the 'desert petunia' as per Arti ji's information

Additional information : The genus was named in honor of Jean Ruelle, herbalist and physician to Francis I of France and translator of several works of Pedanius Dioscorides.
